For a never-to-be forgotten Spanish holiday

Rural self-catering country villa to rent on an old almond and olive farm. A delightful Spanish holiday (vacation) accommodation, near Álora and Cártama, inland from Malaga, Andalusia countryside, Southern Spain. Sleeps 2 - 4 + child, 2 en-suite bedrooms, with a private pool and outdoor hot tub/spa/Jacuzzi. Whilst enjoying privacy and seclusion, remote from civilisation, you are not isolated at all: a 25 minute drive brings you to the local town, 45 minutes to the Costa del Sol and all its attractions and less than an hour to Malaga Airport. Primarily for those wanting to just relax and escape from it all, it is a perfect getaway for walking, rock climbing, painting, photographers, honeymooners, romantic couples, yoga, rambling, geocaching and bird watching. 

A beautiful pueblo blanco (white village) at the top of the Guadalhorce Valley, inland from Malaga. Good roads connect Álora with Malaga, and the local train runs frequent and fast trains into the city centre. It is built on three hills, one of which is dominated by the ancient Moorish castle - some parts of which have been dated back to Phoenician times, possibly some of the oldest remains in Europe. The cemetery gives wonderful views back down the valley, and is a place of genuine peace. The town itself centres on two squares, the higher containing an impressive fountain and the lower the main church.

The market is on Monday morning.

The railway station is down in the valley, by the river. Along the sides of the valley are many fincas. And as always, the whole town is surrounded by spectacular views in all directions.

A few kilometres north of the town is El Chorro and the Embalsas de Guadalhorce, which are massive man made reservoirs, easily visible as you approach Malaga by air. This is a National Park setting, and there is plenty of opportunity for camping and barbecues, but mostly, you will just gaze in awe at the landscape.
